When I had my tyres done I paid £2 extra per tyre for them to replace within the year. Never used it.
On a similar not, how much is a clutch replacement on a Corsa B 12v/1.2 16v?

Deano, is the clutch REALLY on the way out or is it like the head gasket. 
Really on the way out means you can lift it up without it stalling or barely moving, REALLY shakey or slipping under load.... ohh wait 
Dan, no, new tyres being fitted on them today - they are stacked up in the back of the car 
I have 2 bald nexens, one spare and one tyre weld'd tyre for today

Probably like the HG I just wondered that is all. What is the 'ohh wait' bit for? It does slip under load i.e. car full on hills, but it is a 12v 
Do you know how much roughly?

Ie, foot on the floor, revs rise but the car doesn't get any faster. Mr Clutch will charge approx £250, but a clutch for a 12v really isn't expensive, about £50 when I got mine done and my IAM instructor did it with me for a few beers

Remap would make it more torque, thus making the clutch slip or wheels spin.
I don't see what you getting at Will-I-AM!

Remap shouldn't make the clutch slip Pow, won't help it but should easily cope with the remap power!
Its if you start going beyond that on standard clutches they seem to last 5mins I hear
